It is about time that TV actors were paid as well as film stars.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A lot of talented actors still have to pay their bills.
There is a huge gap between the remuneration of an actor and actress.
There is a vast difference in the pay package of every actor. Actors are also exploited at various levels, but when we are established, we get paid fairly well. But at times, if an actor asks for a hike, he/she may even get boycotted.
When you're an actress, there are only a few times you can really get paid. One of them is doing a sequel. They can't fake you or hire another actor to play you.
People on series are now given a lot more opportunities, sometimes more than film actors.
Some actors go, 'Bing!' and suddenly they're being paid huge sums. Me, I seem to get screwed every time.
I don't like it when people ask actors to work for free - on the fringe - as if it's some kind of virtue. That annoys me - actors should be paid well.
If you are the kind of guy who draws in 100 million people to see his film, you've got every right to be paid accordingly, but I qualify as a character actor. I don't put a bum on a seat.
Actors make less than you think.
There's never been a time in history, no matter what the public thinks, when actors have been paid more than they should be.
